My Review

An intriguing storyline. I think that the way Margarita Morris has written the story really allows readers to become sucked into the characters lives and ultimate outcome. It was very well written and I enjoyed the mix of history, mystery and intrigue.
There was a lot of backstory needed but it didn’t bog down the novel as a whole. I felt like I had enough information while learning new things as I went. I loved the writing style, it was easy to follow and the pacing was spot on.
